Not more than three or four years ago I was ridiculed by multiple Freepers for saying that this is NOT a free country. I used to hear someone almost everyday say, “It’s a free country ain’t it?” Does anyone still believe this is a free country?

Exactly the reason I gave up a hobby that I really enjoyed. I began making home-made soap several years ago, sold some, made some craft shows, but mostly just used it and gave it as gifts. I made some really nice baskets for friends and even did some guest gifts for showers and weddings. Then the federal government decided that the lye I used is also used in the manufacture of meth. You can no longer buy lye over the counter. You can buy small quantities by mail, but it is subject to hazardous material shipping restrictions. The whole process is expensive and frankly you worry about being on a watch list somewhere. I just used the last of my soaps and had to purchase soap at Walmart.. It is not the same.
